Registration & Housing

Registration and housing are linked together. You must register to secure a hotel room.

HOTEL ROOMS - AIHA Connect will not contact you by phone for hotel reservations.
ATTENDEE LISTS - AIHA neither sells nor authorizes third party distribution of our attendee lists.

Maritz Global Events is the official hotel and registration vendor.

Hotel scammers and list-sellers are relentless. Both are an industry-wide issue, which contributed to the 2024 enactment of the FTC’s Government and Business Impersonation Rule (source). Be aware and report when possible.

If you are so inclined, reporting can be done through the FTC website: https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/form/main
